When I moved to the US from the UK a decade ago, I went to the shops to kit out my apartment and fondly imagined that the country that put men on the moon and invented the internet would have some kind of amazing high-tech laser-powered robot super-kettle. I was disappointed when the only kettle I could get looked like something from the 1970's.
